Valentine's Day evokes a range of opinions, with some viewing it as a commercialized holiday while others see it as a chance to celebrate love. Many participants express mixed feelings, acknowledging the holiday's commercial aspects but appreciating the opportunity for romantic gestures, such as gifts and special outings. Some individuals, particularly those who are single, feel left out or cynical about the holiday, viewing it as a reminder of their status. There are humorous exchanges about the pressures of Valentine's Day, including anecdotes about past experiences and the challenges of planning around the holiday. The discussion also touches on the idea that love should be celebrated year-round rather than on a designated day. Overall, the thread highlights a blend of humor, nostalgia, and critical perspectives on Valentine's Day, reflecting diverse attitudes towards love and relationships.

I wrote this in the snow, with my wife's and my initials above it. It's a bit rough, but she enjoyed it.

You know how hard it is to erase in snow? :rolleyes:

It's not easy to write with a 6 foot broom handle while leaning over. :biggrin:
